The system message MediaWiki:Requestaccount-acc-text contains: "Your e-mail address will be sent a confirmation message once this request is submitted. Please respond by clicking on the confirmation link provided by the e-mail. Also, your password will be e-mailed to you when your account is created." Enhancement request: add the information (we do it in bold), that the email is not being published, but remains confidential. This is not clear, and given that the distinction between published and confidential information is made elsewhere, may even wrongly be deduced. Thus the proposed message is: Your e-mail address will be sent a confirmation message once this request is submitted. Please respond by clicking on the confirmation link provided by the e-mail. Also, your password will be e-mailed to you when your account is created. '''Your e-mail address will not be published!'''
